Which of the following factors can lead to overcrowding?
Emigration
Competition
High natality
High mortality

Explanation

High natality, also known as a high birth rate, is when a population has a high number of births per person in a given amount of time. It's usually measured in relation to the population size, such as the number of births per 1,000 people in a year.

High natality, or fertility rate, can lead to overcrowding if the population outgrows the available resources.
